we let her down

her father and her mother

never showed her any affection at all

i wonder if it hurts her now

now that it's too late they call

we let her down

it's true

we let her down

it's true

i told her i'd be there

it's easy to say what you want to believe

i told her i'd love her

now that it's too late i see

i let her down

it's true

i let her down

let her down

let her down

i let her down

so helpless

pretending

hoping that somehow somebody would see

so desperate for someone

i guess that she thought that someone was me

i let her down

it's true

i let her down

i let her down

look at her

look through her eyes

closer the hurt and the pain

i hope now she's somewhere

where they'll never hurt her again
